Over at Kirkus: Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer

It’s Friday, which means we’re over at Kirkus! Today it’s Thea’s turn as she reviews the recently released and much-buzzed-about literary speculative fiction novel Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer.

It’s a beautifully written book, and a compelling psychological thriller with a truly memorable (and unreliable) narrator. The speculative elements aren’t quite as sharp, but your mileage may vary. Go here to get the full story.
